Modelcollect UA72051 Russian A222 130MM Coastal Defense Gun Bereg (1/72)

Modelcollect UA72051 is a precision plastic model kit representing the Russian A-222 “Bereg” 130 mm coastal artillery system in 1/72 scale. This unique model set replicates the renowned coastal defense gun developed by the Russian defense industry and used by the Russian Federation Navy to protect coastlines from surface vessel threats.

The A-222 Bereg system was designed in the 1980s and officially entered service during the Cold War, in the early 1990s. It was created to meet the need for a mobile, autonomous coastal artillery system capable of quickly responding to threats in key strategic areas along the Russian coastline. The famous set is based on the MAZ-543 truck chassis, providing exceptional mobility even in difficult terrain. The first Bereg units were stationed along the shores of the Black Sea and Baltic Sea, where they continue to guard the borders of the Russian Federation to this day.

The model is made from high-quality plastic, ensuring excellent detail both in the vehicle body and in the characteristic 130 mm gun. The set consists of precisely molded parts and enables the construction of a realistic mobile coastal gun model. Glue and paints are not included—these must be purchased separately, allowing you to choose your own color scheme and modeling preferences.
